Not only did the Hurricane make landfall two days later, it was 100 miles to the west of the Houston area, and all they got was normal tropical rain, which they get anyway. They suffered no power outages, or anything similar. The Bay City Nuclear plant which was almost directly under the eye of the storm, suffered no damage and did not miss a tick. Even their main transmission lines were undamaged in the storm. Local Municipalities were another matter however.
